Suggested steps for QA:

Install GlobalBlocking, if not already installed
Log into an account with steward rights if you have MediaWiki-extensions-CentralAuth installed or an account that has the globalblock right (you can give this right to admins using $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['globalblock'] = true; in LocalSettings.php)
Use Special:GlobalBlock to make a global block on an IP address
Load Special:GlobalBlockList
Verify that the global block you applied appears in the list of global blocks.

These steps were designed to verify that no changes to the on-wiki interface have been made by this patch (as this ticket and patch refactored existing code without changing functionality). You may wish to test that nothing changed compared to running these steps on a wiki which does not have this change applied.
